Q. & A. with Amelia
Why did you start breeding?
I grew up in a family that has always bred. My grandparents bread Dobermans and Welsh Corgis whilst showing AKC for many years. My Father also bred, spaniels, specifically Britney and Springer.What makes your program special?
Our dogs are family dogs while still meeting all health standards of the breed. We are conscious breeders that actively contribute to our community as well as rescues organizations as every dog deserves a family but not every dog can meet a families needs.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include silver, mantle merle, blue brindle, blue and white, black and white, brindle, fawn, blue, harlequin, mantle, merle, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent dogs
Astryd, mom
Great Dane
About Astryd
Astryd is quite possibly the most loving of all of our Danes. She is unconditionally sweet and wants nothing more than to be with her people. She also loves being outdoors and is highly interested in absolutely everything. Her color is referred to as Lilac due to being a a genetic mix of blue, fawn, and chocolate which has lead to her looking as though is has a slight hue of purple in her coat and some of her features.
Gunnar, dad
Great Dane
About Gunnar
Gunnar is an incredibly affectionate and highly intelligent boy. His brain is constantly going and he is quick to learn anything while being praise motivated vs food or toy motivated. He loves nothing more than being able to snuggle in DEEP both on the couch or in bed and can never seem to get close enough to his people.
